Wow! Just wow! That ball was high, and Herbstriet said "At 6'6" Barner climbed the ladder to make that catch!" The timing of the jump, couldn't have been more perfect, and required a player with a lot of experience to judge the ball. Darnold didn't need to put it up that high because AJ, (parapharsing) Dave Wyman "corkscrewed the defender in to the ground."

Even today, watching that catch impresses me.


Also, when Saubert caught the 2 point conversion, I was afraid Barner was going to get a 15 yard penalty for running out there without his helmet on. But wisely, he put it on, and any Ref in the moment would and should overlook that.
